Yes, a 200 x 200 pixel image will be 200 x 200 pixels regardless of screen 
resolution and screen size.  However, a 200 x 200 image will look bigger at 
600 x 800 resolution than it will at 1024 x 768 because it will take up a 
larger percentage of the screen.

200 pixels is 33% of the screen width at 600 x 800.  At 1024 x 800, 200 
pixels is only 20% of the screen, so it seems a lot smaller.

HTH,
